WHAT TO WEAR?

Whittier Glacier Cruise- on the deck

Of all the spring meetings CSAP has hosted, I believe this one, in Anchorage, has evoked the most queries as to "what to wear?". In true Alaskan style, this is not a question of fashion. My response is usually "layers". However, cold is a relative term.
So- in pictures, let's look at some May photos from my past. This may help you decide what YOU would like to wear.

 Wear a fleece over a long sleeve or short sleeve t-shirt. Weather is mid 50's during the day, night time is high 30's, low 40's. It CAN be in the 60's but that is unusual. At Denali, we just wore fleece and jeans. If you go on a glacier cruise, bring a winter coat if you wish to be on deck. Rule of thumb: if there's ice and snow, wear a winter coat!!

Denali National Park- it's warmer there.
